Power in Numbers

Last night was a trio. Tilden saw his friend Lamay (I think that's how we spelled it) again. We saw Archie! He is doing well. Please pray for him. He smelled good last night, that's a good sign. His clothes looked clean and he was in good spirits. The names and the stories are as follows: Rosa, Roland (pray for alcohol addiction, praise God Roland has been sober for a few days now), Robert (a guy who loves to see us and usually hangs out to talk or just to sit with people who like him), Gale (last week she needed food, this week she needs summer clothes. Pray for Gale that her needs will be met), Kim (she is in detox, praise God she's getting the help she needs), Ernest (he works at Lava Bistro, pray for his job).
We are really feeling the burden of having people depend on us to be there every Sunday. Even as we were leaving last night, a few people made reference to seeing us next week. With only three or four of us to depend on, it is becoming burdensome. If ANYONE with a heart for this ministry would like to join us, you are more than welcome. We have already extended invitations to the corps folk. You don't necessarily have to physically go to the bus station with us, you can stay at the corps and pray for us while we're there, you can walk around the bus station saturating it with prayer, you can pray for us before we go, lay hands on us, you can buy hot chocolate or cups or Bibles (thanks Mrs. Greer!), you can come make quilts on Tuesday mornings (thanks YAM). We are usually down there pretty late and we have to clean the supplies when we come back which means we are leaving the corps sometimes at 11:30 PM. You could come and help the clean up process as Stephanie did last night because she was unable to be with us at the station. There are countless ways to be involved with this ministry. If you can only commit to once in a while, give us your name and we'll call you when we're short a few people (thanks Booth, Sarah, Daniel, Wayne, Sheri, Josh).
Thank you to those who have given time to this ministry when able. You are appreciated.
